The victory also propelled Loeb into the overall classification lead. Loeb’s fierce rival Nasser Al-Attiyah was second on the day in his Toyota. The Qatari driver is just 28 seconds adrift of Loeb in the overall standings. In the bike category defending champion Toby Price recovered from a sluggish start to this edition to claim stage two.
